It was quite refreshing. I'm not sure it was Bud or some "premium" brand though. My standards do drop in warm weather.

We get fresh Bud from about 1 mile away, and it's quite drinkable. As I said, it's not "conoisseur" beer, but you can swill it on a hot day. Personally, I long for the old Miller formula, or a strong Canadian or German beer (Warsteiner with full alcohol content was good). -drl
Post #107,039 by lister 6/23/03 4:33:56 PM Reply	Not all Canadian beer is good As far as I'm concerned the two big breweries Molson's and Labatt's make beer that is only slightly better than the likes of Coors or Bud. Go with the smaller companies if you want something good. Kawartha Lakes, Algonquin, Amsterdam, McAuslan, Unibroue are all good. I actually don't like the taste of normal beer so I gravitate towards fruity or lighter tasting beers. My favourites are KLB Raspberry Wheat, Amsterdam Natural Blonde and Dutch Amber, St. Ambroise Apricot Wheat (McAuslan) and Algonquin Honey Brown. The raspberry and apricot ones are more beer than fruit unlike the Belgian fruity beers which are also still good. I did finally try a Belgian chocolate beer a couple of months ago and it was surprisingly good. Too bad it is only available in bottle here. :-( lister

With you there, Ross. The only two beers that ever see the inside of my 'fridge are Moosehead and Warsteiner. jb4 "We continue to live in a world where all our know-how is locked into binary files in an unknown format.
